FBI debunks FOX News claim of Ujaama water poison plot
======================================================

Buried in the article shown fully below:


--------------------------------------------------
Yesterday Fox television and a New York tabloid reported that the
Denver search resulted in new information that suggested a terrorist
plot to poison water supplies. The FBI, however, debunked those
reports. Charles Mandigo, the special agent in charge of the Seattle
FBI office, said the bureau "has no information that any person or
group has in the past or currently plotted or planned to use poison in
an act of terrorism."

Terrorism suspect sent to Virginia; 
ex-Seattle resident to face grand jury 

By Mike Carter
Seattle Times staff reporter

A former Seattle man suspected of aiding terrorists has been moved to
Virginia, where he will appear before a federal grand jury
investigating al-Qaida plots.

James Ujaama, a former community activist here, was arrested in Denver
last week and held as a "material witness" because prosecutors thought
he might return to London, where he lives with his wife and a
daughter.

The federal material-witness statute allows the government to arrest
witnesses in criminal cases who are thought to be a risk to flee.

Ujaama's Denver lawyer, Dan Sears, said his client was "in transit."
Ujaama has not been charged with a crime.

The federal grand jury in Virginia is investigating several terrorism
cases. Prosecutors there want to question Ujaama about his links to a
target of their probe, Abu Hamza al-Masri, an al-Qaida recruiter in
London and a radical cleric at the North Central London Mosque.

The Treasury Department has identified Abu Hamza as a terrorist and
frozen his U.S. assets. He also is wanted in Yemen on terrorism
charges.

Federal agents believe Ujaama and two London men sent by Abu Hamza
scouted a ranch in southern Oregon for use as a possible al-Qaida
training camp.

Ujaama's brother, Mustafa, 34, said again yesterday that he and his
brother have done nothing wrong. Last week in Denver, federal agents
searched the home of Ujaama's aunt, where James was staying, and
seized computers and documents relating to Abu Hamza, Mustafa Ujaama
said.

According to the warrant used to search the Denver home, Ujaama is
being investigated for conspiring to support international terrorism.

Yesterday Fox television and a New York tabloid reported that the
Denver search resulted in new information that suggested a terrorist
plot to poison water supplies. The FBI, however, debunked those
reports.

Charles Mandigo, the special agent in charge of the Seattle FBI
office, said the bureau "has no information that any person or group
has in the past or currently plotted or planned to use poison in an
act of terrorism."

Federal prosecutors in Virginia plan to ask Ujaama about Zacarias
Moussaoui, the only person charged in connection with the Sept. 11
attacks, sources said.

Moussaoui attended the North Central London Mosque in the late 1990s
when Ujaama, going by the name Bilal Ahmed, was operating the mosque's
Web site, Supporters of Shariah. Ujaama has written that he did "not
believe" that Moussaoui "had anything to do with" the Sept. 11
attacks.

Friday in a closed Denver courtroom, Ujaama appeared before a
magistrate to determine whether the government should be allowed to
continue detaining him.

The magistrate has not announced his decision. But sources have
confirmed that he continued Ujaama's detention based in part on
arguments that he did not appear at a 1999 hearing in Seattle about
his alleged theft of a VCR and his use of multiple identities.

In more than a decade, Ujaama has gone by the names James Thompson,
James Ujaama, Bilal Ahmed, Abdul Qadr and Abu Sumaya.

He also is suspected of helping a British citizen from the London
mosque, Feroz Abbassi, get into an al-Qaida training camp in 2000.

So another lie brought to us by Ashcroft and his "news" cohorts on the 
right.
